Show Notes
North Carolinas Supreme Court recently struck down the Leandro Plan, a $5.6 billion annual education blueprint aimed at delivering a sound basic education to 1.5 million public school students by 2028. The plan, developed by school boards and the state, focused on seven key areas, including teacher and principal support, funding equity, improved testing and accountability, assistance for struggling schools, expanded pre-kindergarten access, and job/college preparation. The Leandro lawsuit, initiated in the 1990s, led to court rulings that the state was not meeting its constitutional duty for equal, quality public schools. With the plans dismissal, North Carolinas education overhaul remains uncertain, leaving questions about closing achievement gaps and funding necessary improvements for students.
